Ok thank you, that means I really have to practice because every time I try it it doesn't fit (lines and everything that don't line up)

I've heard that one, Orchid Lunar--an old folk tale about a woman who was buried in her wedding dress, and at some point grave robbers dug her up and stole the dress to sell for good money. The dress gets sold to a new bride (not by the crooks themselves, but by a third party who bought it from them), who keels over on her wedding day. She is found to have been died of formaldehyde poisoning; embalming fluid remaining on the dress seeped into her system through her skin. They discover this after her grieving husband has already given away or sold the dress, unable to bear having such a reminder around, of course, so it goes on to kill more brides.

I think it's an unlikely tale at best, but it is entertaining. :)

Motts, very interesting.

I wonder what it was used for??

no , they are creepy because they are left to rot and decay in an abandonded building.

I think it's the cupola that does it. You don't normally expect to see that sort of decorations on buildings this... short. Usually they're at least two floors up, or on a space that's the equivalent of that, at least.

Or maybe that's just me! :)

Am I missing something? This looks like the remains of a standard sort of hospital bed with rails to me. So... They're creepy because people slept in them?

Lynne, I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to explain stuff like this to us. I've learned so much about institutions from reading your comments--they're always interesting to read and sometimes (as here) make me think about the whole situation in a different light.

No, they are several shots stitched together on the computer.

Basements really scares me, and this doesn't help

I have to agree with silkster40z. It feels like the rest of the building is underneath, in the ground. Or that it is the top floor of a building that has been removed and put somewhere else.

I've noticed that you can find bowling alleys, or at least one or two lanes, in the strangest places...

WOW, what a great gallery. With these photos this place will be preserved forever. You should set up some way for your fans to buy prints of these photos Motts. Outstanding!!!

Did you copy your rump?

Ah, that may explain it all!
From not being caught hauling all that equipment to mistaking soap dispensers for "real neat" light fixtures.
Mr. Motts is not of this world and that is why he has such mind boggling talent.
Beam me up Scotty.

I figure he beams back and forth between these different facilities, which explains why he isn't ever caught by security guards and how he can carry all that hefty equipment around to take such great pix for us sitting here at home at our computers.
